Untouchability of foreign cloth is as much a virtue with all of us as untouchability of the suppressed classes must be a sin with every devout Hindu.

When there is no desire for fruit, there is also no temptation for untruth or himsa.

Satyagraha as conceived by me is a science in the making.

It is better to resist oppression by violent means than to submit, but it is best of all to resist by nonviolent means.

Satyagraha does not begin and end with civil disobedience.

My work will be finished if I succeed in carrying conviction to the human family that every man or woman, however weak in body, is the guardian of his or her self-respect and liberty.

If they are truly nonviolent, they must also realize that civil disobedience is an impossibility till the preliminary work of construction is done.
